“This is a can’t miss establishment! If you are in Cape Canaveral for any reason, plan to stop in! Warm inviting atmosphere, super stellar bartender/mixologist and wait staff, phenomenal cocktail creations and yummy small bites. Allison (mixologist) came to our table to ask specifics on what we like and literally crafted our cocktails to our taste. We even met the owner (Ronny) who came table side to talk to us when he noticed we were visiting from his hometown. Stop in, you won’t regret it!“

“I was very pleasantly surprised at Waves Craft. We took out a group of 10 with us as new clients if ours and the atmosphere was perfect. Not quiet, but an active venue complete with a really well complemented bar for pre-dinner cocktails. Great dark lighting to better the atmosphere as well. The service was excellent, and the food was really too shelf for central FL. I was also very pleasantly surprised at the entire Hilton Hotel the restaurant is located in. It was every bit as advertised. A full four stars as it was rated and it was definitely at the higher end of the hotel spectrum in Brevard County. I highly recommend both! Who knew?“

“Great happy hour, classy cocktail bar. Great, friendly mixologists Fantastic outdoor patio with music. Our 3x's a week spot when we visit Cocoa Beach. If ya haven 't, ya must!“

“I don't recommend it. The preacher burger was served to me with sand in it. Ridiculous, I won't be back.“

“If you love authentic, scratch Mexican food, you have to go to Milpa’s Tacos! We had some friends take us there Saturday and introduced us to Stassi and the crew there. The atmosphere and staff already make the place top notch, but the food and drinks are what send it over the top. I suggest letting Stassi recommend one of his custom agave drinks, getting a flight of the scratch made salsas and hot sauce along with some guacamole and queso to start. The fresh chips and made to order tortillas start the meal off perfectly. If you’re there on the weekend, do not pass up the Birria or you will regret it later once you see others eating it. Our table ordered a decent cross-section of the menu and everything was so flavorful and fresh. By far some of the best Mexican food I have ever eaten. From friendly, feels like home, staff, a relaxing and fun atmosphere, to amazing craft cocktails and the best scratch food you’ll find, what’s not to love! They have certainly created regulars out of us. We look forward to seeing you there soon as well!“

“Best kava bar in Florida. Amazing atmosphere and top of the line service. Everyone there is welcoming and hospitable. The friendliest people I’ve ever met.“

“We just had another amazing meal at Rebellion Beachside Bar. My husband and I actually intended on trying out their Italian menu but, didn’t think about the fact that they were only serving brunch at that time. Didn’t matter though because we love their brunch. Paris was behind the bar today — our resident cocktail wizard (definitely not a mixologist 😉) — friendly, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable as always. As I was trying to decide what to order I mentioned that I was disappointed there were no donuts at the coffee shop we went to earlier. Paris made a wonderful suggestion to try the French Toast and bacon (something savory and sweet). This was a great suggestion and so good!! There was soooo much bacon I had to take some to go. lol. The star of the meal though came from my husband’s order which came with rosemary-infused grits. It was incredible! Creamy, savory, and so fragrant. It was a combination I had never heard of or had before. Everything we ordered was wonderful, but those grits were the clear standout. Even though they were already busy behind the scenes prepping for the evening service, we never felt rushed or overlooked. From BOH to front, we were so well taken care of. You can genuinely feel the camaraderie among the staff. They are all always so happy. The owners are so gracious and always make it a point to come out and say hello. Today, they and the kitchen staff even surprised us with a special treat — such a thoughtful gesture. Paris — thank you for chatting with us today and for teaching us everything we never knew we didn’t want to know about curling.😉. lol. Another perfect visit. This is why we keep coming back. In fact.. we will be seeing you next week for dinner! 🍽️ 😊“

“Felicia the bartender was very nice and attentive to our every need. Made great recommendations, communication and was very funny! I loved the personal touches at the bar, lighting, nostalgia, beer selection & the food (burgers and fries) was off the chain. I thought the chilled drink runner (?) was the coolest thing ever!!! I will absolutely be back. My wife and I was VERY impressed and will MOST DEFINITELY be back!“

“Aqua Lounge is hands down one of the best hookah spots I’ve been to in Cocoa. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed by the beautiful décor ,classy, modern, and perfect for a chill night out or celebrating with friends. The vibe is on point with mood lighting and plush seating that makes you want to stay all night.

The entertainment is what really sets this place apart. Whether it’s live DJs, themed nights, or special events, there’s always something going on to keep the energy flowing. The music selection is always fire, a great mix that keeps the crowd moving but still lets you relax and vibe with your hookah.

Speaking of hookah, the flavors are top-tier, smooth, and always fresh. The staff is super friendly and attentive, making sure your coals stay hot and your experience is 10/10.

If you’re in the Cocoa area and looking for a lounge with great atmosphere, music, and service, Aqua Lounge is the spot. Highly recommend ✨“
